recallable = recall (transparent) = recall + able

Clear adjective formation from the verb 'recall' with '-able' indicating 'able to be remembered'.

Recallable is made from re- 'again' and call 'to call', so it can mean 'able to be called back into the mind'. Think of 'calling' a memory back, which is why recallable facts are those you can remember when you need them.
